If I understand the enabling/disabling SELinux correctly, it could have been done by setting some “global” Makefile variable. Of course two builds = double build time, +- double space occupied on disk, double trouble (something will not work on SELinux version, while on nonSE it will be all right),…

BTW how about NFC for I8190N version? There is something in GIT repository, but nothing in release…

I am not asking anyone, I’ve pointed out to something that could be just one of possible solutions. Anyway, I prefer longer battery life, so I voted for disable. 🙂

IMHO disabling/enabling could be controlled from one place by some configuration variable, so theoretically it’s only matter of time, disk space,…but it also means 2x testing,…I think that not enough time will be the main problem here.

like i said yesterday but it didnt get printed, you did ask, and like maclaw said are you joking. its hard enough for them to get bugs out of 1 build never mind 2. we dont need selinux enabled as its a battery drainer.

I think the same that this user.
You (developer ai ai ai) could keep it enabled in the future releases and work on it on every release too, to make better than before… and we can decide by our own decision if we want it enabled or disabled on our devices using these APK or something like these.
Or why not?, add an option (visual and touchable) on every of this ROMs that could enable and disable it by our own decision. This will be possible to add on the next releases?

Or maybe (developer), if there is any way to modify the state of SELinux by changing any file (easy way or not)…
You could tell as about that.

So I present you these 3 options if you decide to keep enabled de SELinux:
– Using by our own decision and APP that changes the state of SELinux
or
– Add a new feature inside every ROM to enable/disable SELinux
or
– Tell as about any possible way to enable/disable SELinux

Remember a few months back the articles about hacking the phone through the modem? SELinux is designed to prevent attacks / spying of this sort. It will restrict modem processes to access only the resources labeled for modem use. Without SELinux a compromise of the modem subsystem can lead to completely taking over the whole phone.

Let me add, the impact on battery life is overstated. I’ve noticed no significant increase in battery drain with the Aug 14 image over prior images.

Well, I couldn’t care less.It’s this kind of misinformation and für that drove away from novafusion. It is simply not true that selinux uses that much resources, it only shows that you do not und er stand its workings.I do have a device on aosp with selinux and two days worth of battery.

I’m not convinced that SElinux will bring any advantage for this rom, and maintaining the profiles is a total PITA (I know; I run production servers with it enabled), I’d much rather you guys spent time on rom improvements instead 😉

I’ve voted ‘disable’, I see the point of having it enabled on stock phones, consumer devices, but I think the crowd using the NovaFusion roms etc are not really the target ‘audience’ for this anyway.

Thanks for giving us the opportunity to choose. I elegi disabled. Android is an attack on privacy and SELinux is not going to change anything. Applications have access to all our data, calls, messages, sd memory, recorded what we write, etc. Prefer more durability of the battery and you will spend more to improve the rom.
